Sup,

Had to junk my notebook because liquid and electronics

don't mix. The HDD survived (holding FreeBSD 6.1 STABLE), but

now it seems the partition table is missing. I fired up Knoppix

and run 'testdisk' but read errors are reported. Qtpart fails and

fdisk cannot find the missing table, however Knoppix detects

it as a usb drive and places an icon on the desktop. I've

changed the settings from 'read-only' but to no avail.

Any ideas'?

synack.
